"Ms. Shaw wasn't injured," Melody expressed softly, her tone carrying a quiet sense of grievance, as if she had been wronged but refused to say more.
Douglas' heart ached for her kindness. Unable to hold back, he took her hand. "You've been treated unfairly." Dissatisfaction toward Sierra grew in his heart. He even suspected that she had deliberately stopped Theo from helping Melody. However, since Sierra wasn't here, he could only direct his frustration at Yvette, who was defending her. "Did you hear that? The only one hurt is Melody." Yvette shot Melody a doubtful look. "Are you saying Theo and Cee intentionally left you behind despite knowing you were injured?"

"If you don't want him to despise you, don't do things that hurt others, like deliberately dragging him away when Metody was injured. Do you even realize that the longer a foot injury is left untreated, the worse it gets?" "Douglas, what are you saying? What does this have to do with Sierra?"

Douglas lowered his voice slightly intimidated by Theo's presence. But hearing them fus's over Sierra still made him grumble under his breath.
Because of Theo, the lounge fell into silence. Even though Douglas spoke quietly, everyone still heard him.
Sierra glanced at Melody, opened her mouth slightly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to Ms. En Jones?"
